We're back in Charleston after a nice visit home. We saw many friends and a lot of family. Celebrating Darrell's dads 94th birthday was a high point. Most of Darrell's family attended and it was nice to visit with everyone, especially those we don't see very often.
Of course the highlight was seeing our kids and grandkids. The grandkids change so quickly and grow up so fast. There was such a change after just a few months.
We had a hard travel day yesterday. We had used frequent flyer miles for our trip and our return was Minneapolis - Detroit, Detroit - Atlanta, and Atlanta - Charleston. We landed at 11:45 last night and unbelievably our luggage did also! Beth was very surprised.
We rented a car at the airport because we had some errands to run today. Bob and Margaret had arrived at the marina on Wednesday and joined us today as we went to Sam's Club, Wal-Mart and West Marine. We also stopped at a Farmers Market which is held every Saturday. It was more like a craft fair with crafts, food stalls and some fresh produce for sale.
We returned to our marina to find that a wedding and reception was to be held here. Luckily the weather was nice and we got this picture from our boat. We are close enough that we can enjoy the music from the reception.
Margaret and Bob have invited us over for dinner tonight and we are looking forward to it. Tomorrow is our all day plantation tour.
